FAMOUS NAMES
(Alex: [To Carol] [*], [*]'s thesaurus.)
...
(Alex: [To Kate] Now in French, R-O-G-E-R would--the sound of that, the pronunciation would be "ro-ZHAY", and we would have accepted that. But, you put the "S" on the end, and in the French--"ro-ZHAYZ"--it doesn't work. So it costs you $2,000, but it leaves you with $12,600, and so you become the new champ. No harm, no foul, really. And once again, a one-day champion on Jeopardy!)
